Eidos has announced that Backbone Entertainment will be bringing us a delicious little classic game to our Nintendo DS.

Everyone remember Gauntlet? Well it's coming back, and with online play, multiplayer modes include deathmatch, team deathmactch, and treasure hoarde. Sound like fun? Damn right it does.

Hit the jump for slightly more information.The game will feature 4 character classes, Elf, Wizard, Warrior, and Valkyrie. Currently there is no release date set, but I'm sure there will be as the game comes to a finish.

"With Gauntlet we've revitalised all of the action and fun of the original 1980s arcade classic, whilst updating the visuals and gameplay for today's DS gamer," said Eidos brand manager Ray Livingston. "With four-player Wi-Fi cooperative mode, one of the most memorable multiplayer gaming experiences of all time is back with a bang."
